I'm not being negative, I'm being both factual and realistic. It is a jam tomorrow story - Fact. The greatest positive I glean from the results is: 'The platform is now integrated with over a dozen of the 40 largest Programmatic partners globally, with several others underway and targeted for completion over the next 6 to 12 months. This volume of impressions is currently being monetized at a rate of less than 0.5%, - representing an inherent growth opportunity for the Company, as additional Demand integrations are completed.' Blinkx historically monetized 15% of their impression volume, so if they can get back to this ratio with the enormously expanded programmatic supply network they now have - do the maths - it's huge. But huge jam tomorrow.

I can guarantee the headlines from the media reporting on these results will be; 'Blinkx reports operating loss of $80 million'. Sweeping the decks - yes, but still a jam tomorrow story...

As there hasn't been a lot to smile about Re: Blinkx over the last 18 months, I'm glad that one tickled you :)

They also seem to have been hit by negative press Re: Fraudulent bot infestation. These fraudulent bots have been a real issue for the adtech industry (which has had to take a lot of the pain). Growth has stalled whilst repairs are made. Blinkx were one of the first adtech companies to be hit with such allegations and thus one of the first to build-in protection. They now appear someway ahead in terms of providing a good layer of client protection and security. Hopefully growth returns as confidence in the company's offering does. http://uk.businessinsider.com/rocket-fuel-appoints-randy-wootton-as-ceo-2015-11?r=US&IR=T

I got a feeling profit is going to be quite a nice surprise to the upside.. GL. =)

my 1.5p buy in looking very nice now =)

The profit from turnover of circa £8.5 million, is to be announced from next Monday onwards. Me thinks someone has had a wiff of what it may be... ??

..Want to guess what our bottom line will be come the announcement?

In the last six months we have seen Croma sign deals to supply Hitachi and 2 major prisons with photobase. Win a security (with major utility company) contract worth £3.5 million. Gain yet another photobase contract for £450,000 and secure a residential security contract worth £500,000. All this additional revenue will begin to show in 2012. Nearly all debt has been paid off due to the sale of the avionics business for £1 million, yet we still maintain a price to sales ratio of just x0.375. Revenues are up 21% to £8.5 million (profit to be announced) yet we have a Market Capitalization of just £3 million. Things are looking very good for Croma and with all these recent contract wins, 2012 looks like it’s going to be a very good year for earnings. I maintain my target price of 6p within 12-18 months. Nothing priced in here at all, the share price should be double what it is. However, with the markets as they are, I guess that’s the reason. Croma is growing nicely, security is one thing companies can’t/won’t scrimp on, even in economically hard times. A rather safe place for a good return on ones investment in my opinion. A screaming Buy.

how many of you lucky PI's have been in this one pre 2007? You lucky little lambs you.... I am not invested here myself, I just passively watched the SP shoot north over a relatively short time period. I won't mention the extraordinary P/E ratio, I'll just say well done you longs =) I think BLNX is just starting to show a very similar path...

Yes, I am in at 1.5p. I quite like the look of this one now they are able to service their debt. Streamling their biz and thus Concentrating on their most easiest-to-grow and most profitable services and cutting back on over-stretching themselves over too many businesses will secure a future here imo. And it looks like they have now taken the relevant steps to make that happen. I would like to see 6p inside 18 months

I have been looking into this small security services group and I think it has a lot of potential to grow IF it can manage its debt effectively. It has a nice diverse business model. The debt is rather small, but then again, so is the company, so this needs paying off before investors will be happy to jump in on mass. I was expecting news on the sale of its avionics biz to come last month. Until we get news on this sale (said sale will pay debt), I am unwilling to add to my rather small holding. Definitely one to watch
